    SFB Minion Method - Am I doing something wrong?

    Once everything settles down 1/4 works well. The problem I'm having is that no matter what I do all the charcoal is lighting up at the start rather then burning gradually. So I spend the first 2 hrs or so battling to keep temps down. Once everything has settled into coals than I just add 1/2 a...

    First Ever Smoke

    Looks good - if it tasted good even better.  Don't sweat your first smoke. It takes time to learn the in's and out's of a new smoker. My first smoke on my smoker was not my best effort either. The first 5 ribs on the racks on the right were burnt to a crisp and had to be thrown out. The rest...

    First Brisket in new Smoker

    I used Stubs BBQ Rub for the rub and moped it with some Lea & Perrins. Smoking with apple wood. Added a little Lea & Perrins to the foil as well. Smells really good.

    SFB Minion Method - Am I doing something wrong?

    Well - I packed the basket tightly trying to avoid gaps between lumps, and only used 1/4 chimney to start it, but it still rocketed up to 300. There must be air leaks in the Fire Box, or I just need to use less unlit lump. So I'll hit it again with calk and see what happens.

    Guidance with Pork Butt for Sunday

    Estimate a minimum of 2 hrs per lb. But that's just a guideline. It's all about the temperature with Pork Butt. I would start out at 225 - 250* and go from there. At about 165* wrap it in Aluminum foil to help get through the stall, and let it go until it hits 205*. It WILL Stall! There in no...
